Roadies (2016)
10/10
Cherry popped for Perfection

For years I have read and followed IMDb and pondered on what would inspire me to write a review and ... Well here it is.

I appreciate I am not and have never been associated with a rock band so if this is factually accurate , I have no idea. However I do enjoy well written TV.

The script is sharp and gives the whole ensemble a chance to shine. It reminds me of The West Wing but for rock bands rather than politicians and civil servants. It is both light in tone but always hits the little emotional note somewhere during each episode. You really care about the characters.

The music throughout the programme as you would expect from Cameron Crowe is diverse and excellent. I have been "shazaming" like crazy and downloading music all over the place.

You can tell CROWE has a past in musical journalism and he uses it to great effect.

A fun , light , entertaining show and I am already depressed that I will have to wait for season 2 and season 1 hasn't ended yet.

Please get on Amazon prime and watch it and rate it so they make another season.
